Winners of the "transfer season" for men's basketball — NC State, Kansas, Arizona State, Iowa State,
North Carolina and Oregon — according to ESPN.com. "New coach Kevin Keatts brought in four trans-
fers — two who can play immediately and a pair who will sit this season," they wrote. "Baylor's Allerik
Freeman
is a versatile guard who averaged 9.7 points and will be able to play this year as a grad transfer.
Freeman, along with NC A&T grad transfer Sam Hunt (12.7 PPG), can shoot it from long distance." The
two who will sit out are UNC Wilmington's C.J. Bryce, who averaged 17.4 points per game last year and
will have two seasons of eligibility left after sitting out, and Utah's Devon Daniels, who averaged 9.9
points and 4.6 rebounds as a rookie and has three years to play. All four are listed as guards on the official
roster, while both Bryce and Daniels check in at 6-5.
